​
Overview

This endpoint retrieves all active cart sessions across multiple merchant domains for the current device. It enables cross-domain cart access, allowing customers to view and manage carts from different merchants in a unified experience.
This is a global session endpoint that works across all merchant domains, not specific to a single domain.

​
Authentication

Requires Device Authentication.

​
Request

​
excludes
string
Comma-separated list of domain names to exclude from the resultsExample: store1.com,store2.com

​
Response

​
domains
array
List of domain names that have active carts
​
carts
array
Array of ShoppingCart objects for each active domainEach cart includes:
  • Full V2 cart schema
  • Domain information
  • All shipments and addons
  • Current totals

​
Session Behavior

​
Cross-Domain Management

  • Aggregates carts from all domains associated with the device session
  • Each cart maintains its own domain-specific state
  • Failed retrievals for individual domains don’t fail the entire request

​
Active Cart Criteria

  • Cart must have at least one line item
  • Cart session must not be expired
  • Empty carts are excluded from results

​
Performance Considerations

  • Carts are retrieved in parallel for efficiency
  • Large numbers of active carts may increase response time
  • Use the excludes parameter to filter unwanted domains

​
